Pecan Festival!

Another Pecan Festival has come and gone, and I think this festival is going to be a long term success! As you know, I think Florence has been woefully lacking in the festival department prior to the Pecan Festival. How can we be a southern town without a festival? Despair no more… we finally can [...]

I **may** have mentioned my love for the Pecan Festival before (and not just the fried strawberries)(though those ARE a factor…). I have a nice countdown in the sidebar that will tell you EXACTLY how many days before the Pecan Festival begins. The Day will kick off with the annual “Run Like a Nut.” This [...]

I have already told you about the years I spent being jealous of the festivals in other cities. We tried to pretend that May Fly was our festival… but as much [...]
